I am not a contractor myself, but as a former developer of software systems the systems of a house are quite simple by comparison.

You also need to develop a good working relationship with your local building department and city officials (city council members, etc).

Keep marketing and develop a "spiel" where you can qualify the sellers so you reduce wasted time looking at houses that you can't buy because they are not motivated enough.

I am a land development planner out of Tucson, Arizona and in my experience the likelihood of getting a rezoning approved has a lot to do with the level of support from the jurisdiction and surrounding land owners.

I have been pumping up the credit card limits to fund a small investment/flip but the bigger developments we need to be in will require low 9 figures.So is there a way to fund my projects without private investors?

One of our reasons for looking more into developing is because finding residential real state at 70-80% of FMV is next to impossible.

Just curious for anyone that has done some development work, if there are any basic numbers to follow for bringing in electric and phone?

Zoning changes are virtually impossible around my area.The gigantic developers seem to be able to do it occassionally (but not always).

Don't ask on your first deal, develop a relationship and he will be more willing as deal after deal go down.
